Capmist DM (dextromethorphan / guaifenesin / pseudoephedrine) "If a medicine states that dizziness or drowsiness may occur, one of those will usually happen to me. I have not experienced either of those with this medication. Very pleased with the results of breaking up my congestion in my chest and sinuses."

Maxifed DM (dextromethorphan / guaifenesin / pseudoephedrine) "I was having trouble with drainage into my throat, practically choking and gagging. This worked really well. It cleared that up and took care of the drainage. It did keep me awake at night, but I found that if I took the two daytime doses, I didn't really need the nighttime one."

Capmist DM (dextromethorphan / guaifenesin / pseudoephedrine) "Taking capmist was the worst decision of my life.. 1. It did nothing for my congestion and cough. 2. It made my anxiety 100 times worse. I don't recommend this to anyone with anxiety - the pseudoephedrine is a stimulant which it what makes the anxiety worse"

"In the form of Contac 400 and in my case, it stops runny nose, sneezing and blocked nose almost instantly. The only side affect I have is a good one as it makes me wake earlier in the morning feeling great. "

Capmist DM (dextromethorphan / guaifenesin / pseudoephedrine) "Capmist DM eased the congestion but I could not sleep while taking this product. Make sure to drink plenty of water as it tends to overdry your sinuses."
